Degrease everything. Make sure it is clean everywhere that has oil on it now. Run it for a bit, see where it gets wet. Squealing belts/pulleys can be fixed by sandpapering the sheave faces. Don't do it while it's running! But the squealing may be because the pump has a problem. See how hard it is to turn, whether there's any wrong slop in it, etc.

As BK says, there are better cams available. Read the last 100 pages of the oil control thread. I am serious. Who knows? Depends on what your head and block look like, yeah? You don't really need one, but seeing as you're intent on using an aftermarket rail, you might as well. But you don't really need the rail either. New timing belt, water pump are a good idea. Big 100cell cat. Everything else seems fine.

N16 Nissan Pulsar stalls / idles rough after changing battery.
GTSBoy replied to LeWidget's topic in General Maintenance
Shitty modern FWD crap. Take the TB off and do it manually. -
(budget) Consult readers for OBD port, what are my options ?
GTSBoy replied to LeWidget's topic in General Maintenance
NONONONONONONONONONONO! Just do what I said in the other thread. Go to ANY mechanic. Any mechanic at all. They all have code readers. Plug theirs in and see what it says. -

2 points here. 1. I did not say TB cleaner. I said Subaru upper engine cleaner. Not the same thing. And 2. Regardless, carby/TB cleaner can't really harm the IACV. And I meant for you to spray it into the IACV. You may need to have a few goes at getting some stuff in there. The best way would be to have the hose feeding it ready to pop off. Have engine running, pull hose and squirt some cleaner in, then put hose back on if it sounds like it wants to stall. -

It's just serial. But it's based around command and data structures that are Nissan specific. -
Next discovery. Out of fuel.

Quoting for the lulz.

Broken Front Right Swaybar Mount R33 Skyline
GTSBoy replied to Xander's topic in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain
Yes, R32 is different. -
R33 tail light dim on one side after resealing?
GTSBoy replied to ossy's topic in Car Audio & Electrical
Thought about measuring voltages and quality of earth? -

GTSBoy replied to Xander's topic in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain
I dunno what you're talking about. My HEL lines go from the clip on the inner guard, to the clip on the back of the upright, to the clip just before the caliper, and have little rubber bits on the line for the middle ones. -
Drivers side speaker stopped working
GTSBoy replied to Oliver.Wong's topic in V Series (V35, V36, V37 & Infiniti)
When I say "amp module", I mean an integrated circuit on a circuit board either in your head unit or in a separate amplifier. I have no idea what sort of car, or what sort of stereo is in it. Doesn't really matter, there is little that you could do to test such a thing. At this point, you should do what you should have done from the start. Take the door apart and have a look. Consider swapping the speakers from left to right to see whether the problem stays put or follows the speaker. It might even just go away if it was a loose connection. Failing that, get someone who know about wires to have a physical look at it, in person. -

Could be. Could be that you accidentally adjusted the balance to the left. Could be that the amplifier module has shat itself. Could be a rat died in the door, and its carcass is pressed up against the back of the speaker cone stopping it from moving as much. -

GTSBoy replied to Oliver.Wong's topic in V Series (V35, V36, V37 & Infiniti)
There is a pair of wires that runs from the back of the stereo/amplifier to the speaker. One of these will be disconnected in some way. Broken wire, broken solder joint, broken connector. Or, the speaker could have shat itself. The voice coil inside is made up of really fine wire and will die under too much power input, or from age, or from getting wet, etc etc. -

Fuse? It's wire all the way down buddy. Is this a serious question, or are you trolling? -
Unless you want a significant project, the only sensible swap is the same for same. As RBs are not exactly thick on the ground these days, you may get a better, faster, more trustworthy result from actually rebuilding it. Oh, and don't expect the scan tool to tell you that you have a dud plug or coil. The ECU can't really tell. It can tell you about faulty sensors, and that's pretty much it.

Can you convert a gt neo gearbox to a gtt gearbox
GTSBoy replied to Jacks red r34 gtt's topic in Engines & Forced Induction
Front section of NA tailshaft is not same as turbo. -

He has a manual, further reducing the point of doing anything. -
Whiteline Adj. Swaybars Settings?
GTSBoy replied to NickR33's topic in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain
I ran 24mm bar on soft setting at rear for years before changing to 22mm on hard. I run 24mm bar on hard setting at front and have done so for many years. No breakage. But this is on an R32, not an ocean liner. You can put a bit of rubber sheet and a hose clamp around the bar on each side of one or both D brackets to keep it laterally aligned. -

Unlikely Absolutely not.
